Day 7-
Wow! We cannot believe it is already day 7! So, today we found many different animals that had some interesting adaptations. We saw some toucans with large, long bills which allow them to eat fruit off of trees from branches that are far away and cannot support the bird's weight.
We also saw some sloths today that had some algae growing on their backs to camouflage themselves. Monkeys were also hanging from the trees to protect themselves and to gather food.
There were also some plant adaptations too.
Fungi was everywhere! They bury themselves under moist, warm plants to help them flourish. Strangler figs grow on trees and get their nutrients from their hosts. Orchids are also adapted to grow non parasitically on trees.
